So where might I find that, wise one?
[Milestone XT720 General] Mioze7Ae:
Some easy ways to find the reverend's video that covers installing Dexter's ROM are by going to the reverend's YouTube channel, or by going to his user page and looking through the list of threads he has started.
[Milestone XT720 General] SilverKeiser:
apk's

"Dexter's 2.2.1 Froyo development thread" I tried to install that on my phone but it did'nt seem to work...
[Milestone XT720 General] Mioze7Ae:
In the Dexter's thread inside the XT720 Development section. You are currently inside the XT720 General section.
[Milestone XT720 General] Mioze7Ae:
OK. Now how far have you made it? Are you rooted?
[Milestone XT720 General] SilverKeiser:
The Rev's channel lists only 8 videos on my search and none of them cover the Open Recovery install in any detail... Nor do they give any detail to Dexter's installation instructions. Rule: "Papa John Rules" Circular reasoning abounds here... Substance is scarce, vaguery abounds.
[Milestone XT720 General] SilverKeiser:
Hi M, Yes I am rooted and grounded... Electrically
[Milestone XT720 General] Mioze7Ae:
So, now copy OpenRecovery.apk from Dexter's ROM download onto the sdcard and use a filemanager on the phone (such as Astro) and install OpenRecovery.apk to add the "System recovery" app.
[Milestone XT720 General] eSu.Matix:
How to instal Kal rol/App2SD/Themes/JIT and explaining what are they for... I will give you a big hug for that.
[Milestone XT720 General] cdstewart:
There isn't really much to it. In fact its quite straight forward without the videos.

Open recovery is just an .apk that any file manager from the market will install and once in you hit a big button that says install. Voila!
[Milestone XT720 General] vari9:
Thanks for everything reverendkjr!

It would be great if you could tell us which rom is better dexter's or khalpower's!

please tell us the advantages of each one over the other and as well as disadvantages.

And please tell us which rom you personnaly use!

[Desire Accessories] MaskitVSG:
Can anyone tell me if my desire with the CM Tough Case on would still fit the kit or not pls?

I'm very looking forward to buy this kit so I would appreciate any reviews, additional information possible. But the thing I fear most is the case not fitting the kit.

Thanks in advance
[Desire Accessories] itsy:
I'm quite sure it won't work.

Also got the casemate tough and it is adding quite a lot to the phone. According to the picture of the S 420 it's designed to fit the original Desire without case tight, so the casemate will be too thick.
[Desire Accessories] BashyUK:
No.

All car kits for phones in my experience are made to the phone dimensions, they don't allow for any case space. I have the Brodit and had the same case, now I just use a handmade 'sock' cover when in and out of the car as it's a hassle taking the tough on

Well, just look at the most recent issue where malicious code made its way onto the market. Don't think that code in particular did any horrible things, but it just goes to show that the Market is not fully policed (I think that's a good thing, actually ... if I wanted the reverse, I'd have an iPad)....

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Z7722:
Hey guys,

Once I was living happily with Starburst ROM Lite 1.3.0 and Data2SD (flashable ZIP of Sibere's script) with Dalvik2NAND on a 1280Mb Ext4 partition on my 8GB class 4 Kingston microSD card. However I found that a 1280Mb Ext4 was too much of a waste cuz' all that I needed was 400Mb at most, so I repartitioned the card with Amon-RA Desire and set Ext4 as 512Mb and FAT32 using the rest. Then I flashed the ROM and the script again. At the begining everything was okay. However, recently I've found that when I connect my phone to PC and select the connection type as Hard Disk, the PC can recognize a new hard disk, but tells me that it is not formatted. I checked the partition status in Paragon Hard Disk Manager, and to my surprise, it CAN recognize the FAT partition and its free space and so on; also, the FAT partition can be read and written normally with Android apps like Estrongs, Astro and RE, even in recovery.

Yesterday I reflashed everything and the situation remained the same. I wonder, what is the problem?

P.S. this situation appears not only on one computers, but many.

Many thanks!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meaple:
Partition(s) may have messed up. Format your SD card so it's all a FAT32 partition and see if that works. If it does work, just repartition it again with ext4 and FAT32 and see what happens. These things happen.

[Android Software Development] standupdad:
I want to create an application or two, and the first one I want to do must be able to:

using a "chart", assign a numeric value to various barcode symologies... 1 for UPCA, 2 Code 39, etc

Read a barcode with the camera

"decode" the barcode symbology and create a value for the scanned bc

Cache the data from the decode and symbology

open a text file

Write that barocode symbology value to a file

Write that barcode data to the file on the phone or sd card

save the change

Send the file to an ip address and port that is configured by the user.

What I can already do with terminal emulation apps (in Windows or Android apps) is log into the ip address of a embedded wireless device, and configure the device through a console. I would like to send it a script instead. By scanning a barcode from a scanboard, I could take a value from that barcode and inject it into a file that is already mostly scripted, but with the value of the barcode as the only part that is missing. Once scanned, then written to the file, it could automatically or through a button press, send the file to the ip address to configure the device.

Since some barcodes might be code 39, upca, code 128, etc, each of those barcodes must be programmed into my script. So if I scan a code 39 barcode, the script might call that a value of 2, and then I place that 2 in my script along with the data in the code 39 barcode. With 2 variables always in play, type of barcode and data from the barcode read, that's what always has to be in the script.

Now for the hard part, at least for me. I have been working with App Inventor, and found that they do not have a TCP module, and do not believe that AI is where I should be to make this app. My question is for anyone familiar with programming TCP/sockets, or whatever other networking name it would be called, and another form of programming for the creation of this type of app. I am already working in Eclipse, and the learning curve for me is high because of the lack of time I am able to spend with the beast of a utility. As much as I would love to build this app myself, I would consider paying someone to create it for me as long as I could have the source and continue to modify it after the fact and call it my own. PM me your price, but please remember that I have an ex wife that is already bleeding me to death and that I would prefer to work on this app myself, so I am more interested in a nudge or push in the right direction to create the app.

Long of the short, it's a scanner app that allows me to inject the data read from the barcode into a text file and then send the file to an ip. if I could find a telnet app (ip and port configurability) that allowed me to send text files, I would be partially there, so instead I strive to create.

Anyone?

Thanks in advance,

Standupdad
[Android Software Development] alostpacket:
There should be lots of tutorials on TCP/IP and URL connections you can probably google up.

That's actually the easier of the two tasks. However for scanning the barcode, you're also in luck: zxing's library for barcode and QR code scanning is opensource (and it's excellent). It will take a bit to learn how to integrate it into your app, or you can have the users download the BarcodeScanner app and just communicate from your app to the Bacrode scanner app with it with Intents.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DJComet:
The past couple of days I've been noticing a couple of quirks with my phone and want to make sure that it's either not just me or some kinda bug in the UI.

The first one is with the speaker. In a couple of different games, when I click around, they'll play some sound. But sometimes, and I've only noticed this two separate times in the past week, the sound will interchange between really quiet and normal volume. I know this info doesn't really help much, but I don't know if it's a battery saving feature of the UI or what.

The more troubling issue regarding sound happened to me today. I was in the middle of a game and the sound just turned off completely. It wasn't muted and I clicked on the rocker to see if I had done so by accident, but nothing came out. I even checked with other games and by testing my ringtone. The only way I was able to remedy this was by restarting. I'm hoping these are purely software based and not my phone's speaker dying. :S

The second thing is less detrimental but weird. Two times today, while playing games, the lights on my dedicated button bar on the bottom would be off. I would exit the game, mess around on the home screen but nothing would bring them back aside from locking and unlocking the phone.

These are not complaints by any means, just a couple quirks I've recently come across that are hopefully universal in some form. Pardon my pickiness.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dre4402:
Ive been getting that sound issue also i was using navigation i basically restarted my phonealso
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DJComet:
Thanks for your confrimation on that one.

In case anyone is interested, I think I discovered the button bar lighting issue. I notice it being off today and not turning back on. I then realized that based on the ambient brightness, the light sensor on the top of the phone will either light up the bar or not. Pretty awesome way for it to save some battery.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chino0131:
I've had the sound issues as well. Not a deal breaker to me, but annoying. The issue with audio being low when recording video bothers me a lot tho.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] failsaf3:
I had the sound issue when clicking when I was stock. It was intermittent and reboot would fix the issue. Haven't seen the others but usually play games on mute.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DJComet:
Discovered a couple more quirks over the course of the week. Would like to know of anyone else has experienced them.

I have the Facebook app (not the HTC Sense one) synced with my contacts. This way, I can fill in photos for the contacts I don't have photos for. But for some, I'd like to use the Gmail icon I made for them. I'll switch it in the linked settings, but after a while, it'll revert back to their Facebook icon. I'm assuming this is a bug with how the app syncs with my contacts?

The second thing is in the stock SMS app. Two times now, over the course of the week, I've clicked to open a particular thread and it instead opens up another one in my list that I didn't click on. I'm fairly sure this isn't user error as I've seen the thread that I want to open up highlight, but I could be crazy.

Therefore, you need to make sure the gallery app is not under auto kill. Make sure you enable viewing of native apps.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigc_13:
Any chance you could let me know which other system apps you have on the auto end list? I'm thinking it's still a problem with the auto end because it stops after the screen goes off, so it probably isn't a frozen app, or at least so I think
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jsuarezgando:
Try removing all apps from autoend list, and test again.

If works... only add to the list apps not related to music, video and pictures.

If you open task manager and then press menu, there is an option listed to show all native apps, in addition to the ones you've downloaded. After you enable that, click on the auto end apps. section of tasks manager. gallery should be listed alongside the. camera, etc.

[General Questions and Answers] Boomey:
I've had the phone for a week without this happening, but yesterday when I went to check out the locations app it gave me some GPS error which I fixed up, but then decided I didn't want to use the app so I disabled the GPS satellite and dock feature when plugging in the phone for charging. Last night I realised this was happening a few times so I shrugged it off and just reset the phone which seemed to work for a bit, but then after leaving the phone on lock all night with no wi-fi, bluetooth, GPS or anything, I wake up to see the phone, after 8 hours of standby, to be at about 10% battery. Right now it's on charge, and a couple of minutes ago without touching it the screen turned on for exactly 1 minute.

At first I thought it was because of the locations app, but this doesn't seem to be the case since I force stopped it and it's still doing this.

What could be causing this? It's not that big of a hinderance, but when the phone quickly drains itself of battery because of it gets a bit annoying. Should I just wait it out for the android 2.4 update and hope it fixes itself? I was thinking of rooting the phone and going on from there to see if there's a method that'll fix it, but with the update coming in a couple of months I'd rather refrain from it (even though I have no idea what rooting would do in this situation).

e: locations seemed to have started itself up again. I think it IS the application doing this.

Plug your Moto RAZR into your computer, install android sdk, use adb logcat to read out the log files.

When your screen turns on again there will be some indication who requested your phone to wake up.

Hey all -

I apologize if this has been covered previously, but searches in the android forums here didn't produce results.

Is there a solution for viewing encrypted network traffic on Android? My colleagues and I use Charles Proxy to watch and alter encrypted traffic on iOS devices with relative ease, without having to involve an entire team of people to run some simple tests when we need to. Unfortunately, it doesn't appear that solution works for Android, even if you have a proxy option in the device network configuration.

Does anyone have suggestions or links to existing documentation which would provide a solution to this testing scenario - or perhaps suggest a different approach, preferably one which would not involve coordinating with folks at another site?

Thanks for reading,
